Default Movies of R/C in action!

Hey everyone, I just thought that it would be a good idea to have an outlet for those of us who enjoy watching movies of R/C in action, have a place to show off their stuff. If there is someone out there who has taken movies of their R/C vehicles in action, but have no way to get it on the internet, I would be more than happy to use my site as a temporary server for you to post your movie. Links to other pages with movies on them are cool too. I know www.BeatYourTruck.com has got some pretty cool movies. The movies page on my website has a recent addition that I personally think is worth a shot. Than again, I am a little bias! So cmon, lets see some people's movies. Technically, all a movie is is a streaming slideshow of pictures, and if I'm not mistaken, this is a photography forum, right?

Here is the link to my movies. Except for one exception, they all have music, and they all are compiled in a manner that I think is uniform and clean, but once again, I'm biased.

I know, those things really get thrown around! TC3's bounce back, how do those stand up to that kind of abuse?

Those things look fun but seem pretty slow and dont seem to handle very good.

If by pinnacle of rc racing you mean the biggest then I guess you are right.

1. lots of the scenes where in slo mo

2. there was lots of role because that portion of the video was shot at the end of a week of full on racing...too much grip on the track

1/5 scale is the most realistic class of RC racing.

It looks like it, they seem to have a lot more inertia while diving into corners, and a lot more body lean while cornering. Their weight also probably plays a major part in the way they respond to controller inputs. They look a lot more realistic than the TC3's. I know my TC3 handles nothing like any type of car I've ever driven, that's for sure.
